e is variety in enemies and weapons, Raptor gets a tad repetitive at times with how the enemies attack and levels do not seem to differ as greatly.
Still, Raptor offers a fun shoot 'em up experience. There are plenty of foes for you to blow up, and lots of weapons to use.

t deal of replay value. Despite being linear (and occasionally repetitive), it nevertheless draws you in by showing you the next set of upgrades that you need to save up for along with the prospect of more challenging enemies.
I particularly enjoyed the challenge posed by its highest difficulty level; it basically lets you play again as if it’s a whole new game (simply because you have to play so much more carefully). It also makes a nice change from other games of its era by not simply giving you upgrades as drops from enemies (as similar titles such as Tyrian did) but instead shows you everything you could purchase, and then makes you earn what weapons and upgrades you think suit you best (almost turning it into an RPG).
The boss fights are fun, but perhaps lack as much variety as the rest of the game, but considering the fact that it has about 27 levels this is understandable.
A must have for fans of the genre. However readers should note that I spent hundreds of hours playing this game as a child, so my review may be somewhat biased due to nostalgia.
